Letter to friend on save girl
Answers
Hope my letter finds you in good health. It has been long since we've met. Today, a thought struck my mind, and I wanted to tell you about it. Nowadays, girls are being abused and tortured in many ways. Almost every day, there's a news of some girl suffering pain. Don't you think we should do something about it? I have thought of a campaign. Maybe, we can do it together? Please think about it and write to me. Till then, Save Girls.
Yours ever,
Your friend (whoever writes the letter)
Answer:
The struggle of a girl child begins even before the day she is conceived. In India, female foeticide is a worrying practice, as cheap abortion technology allows households to exercise their preference for sons over daughters. She is ‘lucky’ if she is allowed to be born. Even after birth, the girl child faces discrimination and oppression. She is not provided with proper nutrition compared to her male siblings, her education is not given much importance and in many cases, parents prefer that their sons continue schooling, and want their daughters to stay at home and do household work.
The Government is also concerned with declining child sex ratio and in 2015 it launched “Beti Bachao Beti Padhao” Scheme, to create awareness on the need to protect the girl child and focus on their education.
